is Kalorama Heights, the most

GEN. PYCKETr,s WIDOW

Washington special to the Baltimore
American: The recent recovery, in
this city, from severe i'll
ness Of the widow OF the
late Gen. George Z. Pickett, re.
calls one of tbs most interesting
stor es that comes back to US from the
war. Its chief interest is her NJ flag
cir Q devotion to her husband in AL
the hours OF his hardship and danger.
Privation, sickness, or suffering OF any
kind, only served to bring out more
beautifully her heroic and womanly
nature. Du'iog the closing year OF
the war she followed him on the bat
tie fields, lived III der canvas end went
through camp life like soldier, being
repeatedly under fire and making
narrow escapes, yet still remaining
faithfully by his side. When she
married him che was but fifteen years
of age, beautiful in face ard form,
gifte d in intellect, snd gentle in her
nature. She was, too, perfect and
fearless rider. When tho war was
over an effort wa, made 10 take from
Gen. Pickett the privileges given
him by the Grant-Lee cartel,
and they went to Canada, There
they had no friends, no money, and no
pr lepect Of either, with young child
to care for. But her brave nature
never ALTERED. With that indomita-

and aided by her superior education,

should be kept, and they once more
returned to their home. Gen. Grant
then rendered Gen. Pickett the posi-
ton OF Marshal Of Virginia, but he &C.
cepted q position In an insurance com.
pany, with a handsome salary at
tacheI. Though all then seemed
bright, the worst sorrow was vet to

THE EpMUNps RESIDENCE.

Something about the man who
stands at the window enjoying all
this beauty. lie is now So, and looks
as though he might round out the
time in the Senate only served by
Benton in the first century OF our
national existence. He is fully six
feet in hight, and though standing
very straight, carries his head for
ward from habit and not from any
physical deformity or stoop as might
easily be supposed. He has never
enjoyed the most rugged health, and
both in winter and summer, dresses
with great care to guard against the
i'll effect of changes of weather. The
soles OF his shoes are fully an inch
thick, and he INDUCES carefully in
wraps when coming to and returning
from the Capitol in the winter. He
wears full beard kept cut short and
is almost entirely bald. He is broad
shouldered but not feshy. He is not
man of great conversational pow
ers, wit he knows nothing about, and
his autograph is, perhaps, the only
joke he has ever perpetrated..

WASHINGTON, May 2O..With the
single exception of Pennsylvania
avenue, Massachusetts avenue, is
perhaps, the most beautiful thor
oughfare at the national capital. 1t
stretches across the city in its
widest part and together with the
recent extension it is nearly or quite
eight miles in length. A stroll from
one end of this broad bOu evard to
to the other, is well worth taking
during the charming springtime. 1t
is a good day work or play-as you
like it. The smooth asphalt pave
ments, the green over hanging
boughs, the flower and shrub be
decked parks and the magnificent
dwellings all go toward making the
ramble one long to be remembered

"NEvER MIND"

What's the use of always frettinE
At the trials we shall find
Byer strewn along our pathway
Travel on and never mind "
Travel onward working, hoping,
Cast NO lingering glance behind
At tho trials once encountered;
Look ahead, and "never mind"
What 10 past 10 past forever;
Let all fretting be resigned;
twill never help the matter
Do your best, and never mind"
And If those who might befriend you.
Whom the ties of nature bind,
Should refuse to o. their duty,
Look above and never mind"
Friendly words are often spoken
Whom the feelings are unkind,
Take them for their real value
Pass tbem BY ana never mind"
Fate may threaten, clouds may last
Enemies may be oombined;
Hy0ur trust in God is steadfast,
He will help you never mind"
